Merging the Lucene and Solr -Dev Mailing Lists

Following the merging of the Lucene
and Solr projects, a poll has been posted asking the community how
they would wish the merging of the -dev mailing lists to be
handled.

There are two options. The first, is to add a new lucene-dev
list and start indexing it. However, this would mean that if you
wished to search for old lucene-dev or solr-dev messages, you would
be required to explicitly select those lists. The poll suggests
renaming the old lists as lucene-dev-old and solr-dev-old, and the
new list as lucene-dev.

The second option is to merge the old solr-dev and old
lucene-dev into a single lucene-dev that would contain all the old
messages from both lists. “In effect, it would look as it Lucene
and Solr always had a single lucene-dev list,” reads the project
blog.
